Because of $$$. HD DVD uses MS's compression format (VC-1) and the interactive menus on HD DVD uses MS's programming language. Blu-ray uses Java for thier interactive menus. That is a lot of money in liscensing fees to be lost by MS.Â
[QUOTE="justforlotr2004"][QUOTE="lantus"]Because if they endorse Blu-Ray Sony wins the console war without even trying.lantus
No they would win the Format war, not the console war. Blu-Ray winning the format war would boost hardware sales a lot. but MS would have Blue Ray too so it would also boost their sales..

Blu-ray uses VC-1 too....it's been using it for a while now.
[QUOTE="FWWILLKILLSM"]Does it matter seeing that Blue-Ray won already!?swamprat_basic
Actually, I think HD-DVD is now expected to be the standard accepted by most consumers. You are only kidding yourself. BR is getting more support, media attention and is surpassed HDDVD in sales already.

Are you wtfing my post or the Topic? I'm wtfing ur post
Why?
Its the same exact type stupid question the TC asked. Sony is a huge supporter of blu-ray so if MS supported it they would support Sony, if Sony used Windows they would support MS. You dont follow your competition you go against it.

THe sales of blu-ray discs are 4:1 more then hd-dvd discs, red light district lion head stuidos, buena vista, and columbioa picture are making exclusive movies for blu-ray, while only paramount is the only exclusive hd-dvd movies.

Sony makes their movies on Blu-ray therefor if Blu-ray fales their movies fale, same exact thing as them owning Blu-ray. It doesn't matter.. so what if Sony supports blue ray.. how would that effect MS in anyway if they also supported blueray for their console?

lmao because of VC1? BR is using Vc1 now also. No **** sherlock. Blu-ray also uses other compression formats. What do you think will make MS more money? A format that that uses VC-1 for everthing or a format where the studio will be able to choose the cheapest compression technique.

If they supported blu-ray that means more sales for Sony, and that means more money for them. If MS can make Blu-ray obsolete with HD-DVD they will make the PS3 less impressive when it comes to looking at bang for your buck. Pretty obvious stuff if you actually look at it in an overall view instead.Â

Isn't Vivid Entertaiment supposed to be the largest porn studio? It's supporting both formats. I'm no expert on the matter.
Price is going to be the major deciding factor in the format. Once most consumers start catching onto the HDTV craze, which hasn't happened yet and won't happen for a while, the decisions is going to come down to what's cheaper. That is how most consumers think, and why Wal-Mart is the king of retailers. Unless Blu-Ray can come down significantly in price, it's not going to last.

Both of these players will lower in price. The beginning of this new craze will occur when hd-tv's become cheaper. Not when you could buy a 100 $ hd-dvd player or blu-ray player that can't play movies without a 1000 $ tv.
Also if it has no support what is the use of having it? It is cheaper but doesn't have any support making it absoloutly useless.

He's trying to say, if it's cheaper, and the consumers are grabbing it, the support WILL come.
